There is toooooons of information on this forum regarding reggae/dub sound. Perform a quick search. To get you on a great path for reggae, you cannot go wrong with a set of flats. Avoid stainless steel. If you must have roundwound strings, look into nickel-played steel, pure nickel strings, or pressure/ground wounds.

Chromes will sound good with reggae or alternative music i think. love mine. tried to back to rounds but my ears wouldnt let me!

Yep, like mcm said - Chromes.

I'd vote flats or half rounds so they're in between rounds and flats and you can always roll the tone off for a deeper dub
